Ezra Nawi comes from radical Iraqi tradition

Ezra Nawi, at the centre of a scandal broken by Israeli TV, is the far-left activist who turned over Arabs selling land to Jews in the West Bank to the Palestinian Authority, leading to their torture and execution. From a family of Kurdish Jews, the notorious Nawi belongs to a tradition of Iraqi-Jewish radicalism. Iraqi Jews were not only prominent in the Iraqi Communist party, they set up the anti-Zionist League in 1945. Many found refuge, ironically, in the Zionist state.

Ezra Nawi...scandal

The Times of Israel reports:

"A key figure from a left-wing Israeli group
was arrested at Ben-Gurion airport on Monday as he tried to leave the
country, days after being filmed in a television investigation that has
rocked the halls of power.

Ezra Nawi, a Jewish far-left activist from the Ta’ayush group, is reportedly suspected of conspiracy to commit a crime.

Nawi, a prominent campaigner for Palestinian
rights, featured in a television investigation last week in which he was
recorded saying that he helps Palestinian authorities find and kill
Palestinians who sell land to Jews."

"Nawi famously was convicted of
pedophilia and rape of a minor boy some years ago. Later he was also
convicted of violently attacking police as part of a riot of violent
Palestinians he helped lead. He speaks Arabic and likes to dress as an
Arab. He is active in small far-leftist anti-Israel NGOs operating in
Israel that pretend to be "human rights groups," including B'tselem and
Taayoush. These are foreign-funded subversive groups that have never
heard of any human right for Jews worthy of being defended and certainly
not the right of self-defense against genocidal terror and
Islamofascist aggression. They are also notoriously indifferent to
violations of free speech rights of anyone not from the far Left."

His sordid personal history -- the statutory rape conviction and the violent assault of police at an ostensibly pro-Palestinian protest reek of a serious personality disorder that found a means of "validation" and support.

Introduction

In just 50 years, almost a million Jews, whose communities stretch back up to 3,000 years, have been 'ethnically cleansed' from 10 Arab countries. These refugees outnumber the Palestinian refugees two to one, but their narrative has all but been ignored. Unlike Palestinian refugees, they fled not war, but systematic persecution. Seen in this light, Israel, where some 50 percent of the Jewish population descend from these refugees and are now full citizens, is the legitimate expression of the self-determination of an oppressed indigenous, Middle Eastern people.This website is dedicated to preserving the memory of the near-extinct Jewish communities, which can never return to what and where they once were - even if they wanted to. It will attempt to pass on the stories of the Jewish refugees and their current struggle for recognition and restitution. Awareness of the injustice done to these Jews can only advance the cause of peace and reconciliation.(Iran: once an ally of Israel, the Islamic Republic of Iran is now an implacable enemy and numbers of Iranian Jews have fallen drastically from 80,000 to 20,000 since the 1979 Islamic revolution. Their plight - and that of all other communities threatened by Islamism - does therefore fall within the scope of this blog.)
